We're growing food with less water, labor & space

We provide a local, sustainable food source that’s capable of scaling with the needs of urban areas. Pesticide free, non-GMO and grown entirely indoors all year round.

Aeroponics?

An advanced form of hydroponics, aeroponics grows plants in a high humidity environment without the use of soil. Instead, our plants’ roots hang in a chamber of nutrient rich mist that provides everything a plant needs without requiring it to expend unnecessary energy. This allows plants to grow much faster than their soil-based counter parts while using less water; typically 95% less in the case of most lettuce.

While aeroponics has been used as a research tool for 60+ years, it has only recently begun to gain traction as a viable method for farming at scale. We’re hoping our technology brings the initial setup and maintenance cost down to a point where scale can be realized.

The Plants

Baby Spinach

18-25 Days

Quick to grow and extremely nutritious, Baby Spinach is one of our primary plants used for testing as it often yields results within two week.

Butterhead Lettuce

23-32 Days

Butterhead is very useful for testing our larger, individualized growing fixtures. They also provide a good platform for testing various lighting conditions as they react relatively quickly.

Wasabi Root

7-8 Months

Wasabi is one of our primary goals with the project. Its difficulty to grow and sensitivity to environmental change makes it an ideal candidate for aeroponics.

Open Positions

Greenthumb unnecessary. We're interested in hiring talented people who have a broad understanding of their field and what surrounds it. If you don't see an open listing that exactly suits you dont hesitate to apply to the general interest listing.
